TheWilloughbian Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 I love Skyrim, but I don't really play it anymore. I just mod it and take screens mostly. I'd like to get a game to actually play. I'd like an RPG with sci-fi elements but I'm open to other styles of game play. Anyone have any suggestions/thoughts? These are the candidates I've been looking at so far. No Mans Land: Looks cool, but I hear this one can be a bit of a grind. Shadowrun Returns and the sequels: Looks like fun for an older game and the turn base strategy would be a change of pace from Skyrim. Fallout 4: I enjoyed FO3 and would like to play FO4, just not sure how it will run on my PC. Fallout 3: I loved this game on Xbox 360 and would loved to have a tricked out, high res version to play with. Though I'll have to mess with it to get it to run on Windows 10. Also I'll likely end up modding it more than playing it. System Specs: HP Omen 17-w033dx laptop 6th gen i7-6700HQ 2.6 GHz NVIDIA GeForce GTX 965m 4 Gb 12 GB RAM 1080 Monitor, 60Hz Basically I'm looking for something to keep me entertained until I save enough for a new gaming tower.

HeyYou Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Your machine should run FO4 without too much trouble. Certainly has the hardware for it. It's been out for a while now, so there is a REALLY good selection of mods available, you can customize the game to your liking, then, you can mod it up yourself as well. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWilloughbian Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 (edited) Thanks for the response. I'm definitely tempted by FO4 . I've had my cursor over the add to cart button more that once. My machine runs a tricked out SSE ok. I think any framerate issues I have are most likely due to the power adapter being somewhat weak (150 watts). I wish HP would make a 180 watt for this laptop. It came with a 120 watt that I had to upgrade after a BIOS update, which I guess made some changes to power distribution. Word of advice: Gaming laptops may not be the best investment. I wish I had spent the money on a tower. Edited November 3, 2018 by TheWilloughbian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWilloughbian Posted November 3, 2018 Author Share Posted November 3, 2018 Ha! I'll have to spend a month modding it before I can even start the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyYou Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Ha! I'll have to spend a month modding it before I can even start the game.I'm afraid that is simply a 'job hazard' with beth games..... or, likely, any game that is actually modable. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWilloughbian Posted November 4, 2018 Author Share Posted November 4, 2018 Ha! The woes of PC gaming. :laugh: There's always some tiny detail to tweak out on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkingdavis Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 I.m running FO4 on a lot older system than that so you should have no problem. I also like the Mass Effect series for good story line and replayablity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWilloughbian Posted November 5, 2018 Author Share Posted November 5, 2018 Yeah, I have the ME trilogy. Great games, though I didn't like three as much as the other two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
